The Honorable Allen W. Dulles, Director
Central Intelligence Agency
Washington, D. C.
Congratulations for talk you gave before the Veterans of Foreign
Wars at their convention at Detroit, Michigan.
Its about time our leaders in Washington have come to recogni,.e
the dangers of Communism and to have given the facts to the people.
If you wish to receive a abDck, be sure to view the film, "Communi;-m
on the Map" produced by the Educational Dept. of Hardin College, Sear c:7,
Arkansas.
To realize our leaders were fooled by Nikita Khrushchev is be-'rond
me. Certainly they must have known what kind of a person he is. ?ur
leaders have a lot of making up to do to offset the damage which wg+s
done. To think we trusted him. I ask myself, "Why?"
Very sincerely,

THE RECORD TELLS
Who Is Nikita S. Khrushchev?
WHO IS NIKITA S. Khrushchev, the
man who wants to sit down and talk
peace with the free world, the man
who demands apologies from the West
for affronts to his sensitivities? Let the
record of his deeds tell who he is.
Let us examine this man who sent
his own wife to a concentration camp
and directed the murder of Josef
Stalin's wife.
When Khrushchev was in the United
States last fall Americans saw flashes
of his monstrous temper, his grotesque
figures of speech, his preoccupation
with death, his appetite for violence.
Then, at the Paris summit meeting,
his veil of pretense for peace and un-
derstanding was ripped off, and he
stood revealed full face.
The real Khrushchev was known
long before. The files of the House
Committee on Un-American Activities
are crammed full of the testimony of
those who were eye-witnesses to his
rise to power in Russia. They began
their account with the year 1930 when
Khrushchev was trying to prove to Jo-
sef Stalin his fitness to become a mem-
ber of the Central Committee. His
proving ground was the Ukraine, where:
1. He bossed a genocide that took
an estimated six to seven million lives.
2. He personally engineered the sys-
tematic starvation of millions of
Ukrainians.
3. He participated in the slaughter
of 80 per cent of the Ukraine's intel-
lectuals, directed the secret police
murder of 400,000 political foes.
4. He organized man-made famines
in 1938.
5. He uprooted the Catholic Church
in the Ukraine, erased 4,400 churches,
and closed 127 monasteries. Today the

that Stalin rewarded Khrushchev with
important posts for his skill in elim-
inating enemies of the state. By 1944,
according to the transcript, Khru-
shchev was dispatched to the Ukraine
again to deal with a resistance move-
ment. The survivors report that at his
order the secret police:
"Cut into the skin and tore the skin
off living bodies."
"They also nailed people on the
crosses. They cut out eyes, broke bones
in legs and arms and extracted nails."
One witness before the committee
said mass graves opened after a Khru-
shchev-directed purge revealed 9,449
maimed and mutilated bodies.
As premier of all the Russias, Khru-
shchev was confronted in 1956 with a
Hungarian freedom uprising, the first
to contest his authority. His reaction
was similar to his performance in the
Ukraine:
1. 30,000 Hungarians were killed dur-
ing and after the revolt.
2. He ordered the deportation of 12,-
000 persons to the Soviet Union.
3. He imprisoned hundreds of thou-
sands in Hungary.
4. He confined 15,000 to slave labor
camps.
Thus, as he had proved himself to
Stalin, he now proved to his fellow
Communists that he was as tough as
Stalin.
What has he in mind for the United
States? A speech he made in Warsaw
in 1955 gives some insight:
"We must realize that we cannot co-
exist eternally, for a long time. One
of us must go to his grave. They (the
Americans and the West) do not want
to go to their grave, either. What can
be done? We must push them to their
